The LG G7 ThinQ was first teased and then finally revealed in early May this year and it continues LG’s yearly update of their mid-to-high range G series Android smartphones. Oh, and yeah, it has a notch. Now we know when Australians can get their hands on it, how much it will cost and what’s hiding beneath that notch-carrying, 6.1-inch, Super Bright Display. Besides the troubling caps-no-caps name (ThinQ, really?), it’s looking the goods.

We’ve got everything you need to know about the LG G7 right here.

LG G7 ThinQ Specifications

Besides having a dastardly name, the LG G7 is sporting some impressive features. Of particular note is the notched screen (that you can switch off should you desire) and the massive 19.5:9 screen ratio, which keeps it in line with the G6. That phone had an impressive screen – and it seems the G7 will continue that tradition this year.

LG G7 ThinQ Pricing

The LG G7 will retail at $1099, wich puts it in the same sort of space as the Huawei P20, as well as Samsung’s latest flagship S9, Nokia 8 Sirocco and the Google Pixel 2. It will be interesting to see how it stacks up against those phones – so stay tuned for more.

You waited out all the announcements during Mobile World Congress and the deluge of new handsets that debuted in the last few months.
